The general news thread

I reckon they have the right fella this time, if the bike was used in this then it narrows it down to the local area and plenty will know who it is.

 

You're probably right Bobby and I know they're trying to let the public know that they're on top of this but they're a bit too quick sending specifics out again for my liking. They've ruined one chap already so a bit of caution until they've at least nailed it down would make sense.

 

My heart goes out to this girl's family absolutely heartbreaking. Beyond belief that this can happen in public in broad daylight and it has me very worried for my two daughters. I can think of nothing worsez one thing to lose someone to a murder of this degree but I find it hard to imagine the pure and utter shock of the family, the girl went for a run at 4pm. Truly truly incomprehensible. I hope she did not suffer much.

Some of the racism I'd seen online about the initial suspect is very disheartening.

Interview: ‘I just went to the shop for milk’ – man who was wrongly arrested for Ashling Murphy’s murder

I can't believe they have arrested his sister.

 

Their incompetence knows no bounds

 

Suppose it's easy to thrash the house and arrest all in sight when you think he's done what they're accusing him off. Dissapointing from the Gards in question if it's the case.

Obviously not looking to detract at all from the real victim here.

 

Twitter had his name and address up. Horrible situation and that of the sister too

 

Confirmed 18th March Bank holi. And giving health care workers 1k

 

Are we havin paddy's day parades?

 

And 2023 "around st Brigid's" so hopefully first Monday!

Honestly the long Paddy's is great idea.

 

€1000 tax free bonus announced as well for some but not others in the health service. Its a can of worms they shouldn't have opened if they had any cop on.

 

I thought it was everyone? Student nurses, Nursing home staff and private hospitals. I'm sure I read it on one of reporters. Stand be corrected

 

RIP Meat Loaf
Bat out of hell one of the greatest albums of all time

 

If you get the chance to see one of the documentaries about him,you should. Had a fascinating life.

RIP

 

Sad news.
He was such a great character and a true original.

 

Was at him in the Oasis in Carricmacross donkeys years ago ! Pulled the plug 15 mins in, got hit with a bud bottle !! Mad night Ted !!

 

Bat out of hell was written as a dystopian future rock version of Peter pan, I can't remember the name of the guy who wrote the album but it will always be remembered as Meatloafs, he was the whole personality thar brought the album to life.

Sad loss to the world.
